Luscious Low Carb Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffin

[@judydafryck1186]

Made these this morning and filled very full so it took longer to bake (14 minutes @ 350) and they are amazing! You would not know they are low carb. Thank you for sharing😀

[@judithweaks6634]

I made these today. Decided to make them in my mini muffin pan. I am one of those cooks who will get ingredients out one at a time, measure the amount into the recipe and put the ingredient away, so when I am done, all that is left to do are the dishes. Today, I got the ingredients all out while watching the video. I then went to the recipe and mixed it all up according to that, putting the ingredient containers back in the cupboard as I added them. All went well and I put them in the oven. When I wiped off the counter, there sat the salt. I believe you mentioned it in the video, but it doesn’t seem to appear in the recipe. This recipe made 24 mini muffins, which turned out well (of course the oven time had to be adjusted). I did have a little batter left, so I made a bit in the microwave in a ramekin. Yum. I then tried the last bit in my chaffle maker. It tasted fine, but was more crunchy. My mini muffins turned out more brownie like, which is what I was hoping for. Thanks for another yummy recipe! I appreciate all you do. 🙂

My kiddos loved these. My eight year old who doesnt like anything told me how good they are and my type 1 diabetic kiddo asked for seconds. These are super good and travelled well with us on the go today. Thank you Kristie!

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

thanks for letting me know! I love that the kids loved them too!

[@sweetstkissez22]

I have spent my entire day watching your videos! I made the pork neck tomato gravy yesterday and I'm a huge fan. I'm a week into Keto and lost 5 pounds so far. Only thing that broke my 3 month stall from WLS! I heart you!!! Your channel is a life changer!!

I did the "pan cookie" type, instead of muffin forms. Came out great - ended up with 15 squares, and it really does remind you of a brownie, especially when you put them in the fridge.....Yummmm.

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+lauran08 Thanks for letting me know! I've yet to try that, but I will!!!

[@lauran08]

Only a side note -- for those using scoopable Stevia (like me) -- try tossing the amount you need into a grinder for several seconds. It mixes better, and has a smoother taste. Any leftover ground Stevia can be used for something else, in a separate container.

[@MountainMama1000]

My husband LOVES chocolate and will adore these muffins. I may have to make them into a cake. Grace is just adorable!!

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+Sharon Mynes Please let me know if you give it a try as a cake.

[@MountainMama1000]

I'm not a big fan of chocolate but my husband has LOVED it as a cake. I made some peanut butter frosting out of natural unsweetened peanut butter, cream cheese, Splenda and vanilla. He thought it was just awesome!

These are MOST excellent!! Thank you Kristie!!!!

[@lorrainefoster7000]

Tried these today and they were delicious! Warm out of the oven they had a cake like texture with a fudge center. Completely cooled they reminded me of a brownie! My carbaholic daughter loved them too! Thank you for such a great recipe!

[@LindseyMurphy]

Oh to be able to come play kitchen with y'all and get to create some of these amazing recipes you've made!!! These look wonderful and I believe I've found something to substitute a birthday cake for me! Thanks so much for sharing this!

[@bethvankirk]

I love these Kristie! I've been making them for a couple months now and don't think I ever sent my thanks! They are my go-to thing when I want a special treat. I'm a good cook, but baking? Not so much. lol, Yet even my mistakes with these are good. Once I got them too dry, so each time I wanted one I would pop it in the micro a few seconds and the moisture was back. I would even splurge and put it in a fancy serving glass with a tiny splash of cream over it (even a little KG butter) and eat it with a spoon, maybe like a bread pudding. YUM. Ooey-gooey goodness!. I've also noticed the differences in my silicone muffin pan and my metal one. Live & learn, but even my flops are delicious. I haven't added the chocolate chips, but I still need to try this with the peanut butter. Perfect with a glass of unsweetened cashew milk. Ahhhh! Thanks again.

[@wolfekelly]

They look delicious!

[@mlpluxlimo]

I just made these muffins. Oh man these are good.

[@sandragillanders2425]

Going to try this one very soon. Need to get a chocolate bar to use. Thanks for the great recipes.

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+Sandra Gillanders It's a great basic chocolate cake recipe.

[@Ahbeeb]

These are dangerously good! Thanks for the recipe!

[@VideoProductions-zi3rl]

that looks really good :)

[@louisethurlow1760]

Always a hit!

[@TessWeightLossJourney]

Oooo looks yummy Kristie!!

[@deborahnarendorf7106]

Gracie is such a cutie! I will bake these as my granddaughter, son and daughter-in-law will be up Jan 4. They are keto and baked peanut butter cookies (keto) and my granddaughter did not like them. Here is hoping she will like this as much as Grace.

[@chrispie5]

This is just amazing... Thanks K!!! Anyone tried to freeze these?

[@natalienorthey9769]

Kristie - I love your videos - your voice is so soothing - I use them to wind down at the end of the day. I think I have literally watched every single one of your videos at least once. Wondering if you could start leaving the carb count in the description box with the recipes - just so we have an idea of what numbers we are dealing with. I have noticed if I do any low-carb baking it slows down my weight loss so I only make them very occasionally - but good to know the numbers to be able to factor them into the day. Thank you for all your time and dedication to making amazing videos and tasty recipes.

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+Natalie Northey I've started trying to talk through the carbs as I make the recipe, but I really want folks to calculate for themselves. I usually count total carbs, but I don't count the carbs in oat fiber because it is pure insoluble fiber. I also don't count the erythritol sugar alcohols. For those two reasons, I'd like folks to pay attention so that no one is misled.

[@screamingof30beavers]

Oh my goodness Kristie! I just got around to making these and they are delicious! My oven took a little longer to get them done. Maybe 10 more minutes on 350. But they came out so moist! They almost taste like a pudding cake! I can't wait for my fiancé and mom to try these!

[@screamingof30beavers]

Oh and I just discovered putting EZ Sweets into unsweet tea. You never could tell it wasn't sugar!

[@leeannn6299]

Looks really good, Kristie, I am eager to try this. Question, at the end, during the tasting, you have on the cutest little sweater top. I love it! Do you know where you got it and was it a recent purchase or some time ago? Thanks for all you do!

[@opaladi]

Looks like you did it again Kristi TY will make soon..Grace is to cute..;o)

[@juliedawn8526]

Your daughter is Adorable!!! :0)

[@openyoureyes21]

Mrs Kristy do u know of any low carb pop tart recipes?

[@clothmommy2be]

Is there any way to make this vanilla? :) the chocolate came out amazing I wanted to try again but vanilla this time

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

Try the blueberry muffin recipe without the blueberries and blueberry extract.

[@valbakke]

Do you think egg white protein powder could work? We don't eat dairy. thanks

[@dsryan1517]

Love all your videos and recipes. Did you post the nutritional values of this somewhere? Don't see them. Very important.

[@albericcardinal1061]

I have made these 3 times now--regular--not the chocolate version. The first time they turned out great; the second 2 times they have fallen in the middle after I take them out of the oven. They taste great, but don't look so great. What a I doing wrong? I do see Kristie changes the oven temperature directions in the video and reduces the cream cheese from 4 to 2 ounces as is given in the cookbook recipe. I do not use the optional glucomannan as I do not have any and it does say in the recipe that it is optional. I didn't know I could substitute Xanthan Gum until I watched the video. Help! What can I do to improve the looks of these?

[@roseofqueen]

can you make low carb sweet sticky and spicy chicken

[@jonnydoe85]

Any ideas for pudding? Jell-O has their sugar free stuff but of course, the ingredients are the best. Maybe pudding stuffed muffins? :-)

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+jonnydoe85 hmm.....there is a low carb pudding recipe out there. Try looking at Low Carb Maven. She has an excellent blog.

[@MarnysCrochetandCrafts]

Did you use an unflavored whey protein isolate or a vanilla flavored?

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+Marna Oliver Unflavored. I use the same Isopure that I used in soul bread.

[@patriciabeetschen1329]

Just taking them out of the oven. I’ll let you know how they turned out after they cool! Tried another site’s recipe earlier and they were bland and dry....hoping these are better!

[@carolinelovesoldhorrormovi8641]

Hi Kristie, Unless somehow I keep missing it, I didn't see salt listed in the above ingredients, but did see you add it in your video, would you recommend using it, or is it then optional. I also have a question regarding the glucomannan, is it the same as gluten vital? Also, if it is then can I substitute xanthan gum for gluten vital in your recipes. Thanks for your help, I am new to low carb baking, and am trying to gather the ingredients I would need for multiple recipes.

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+Caroline lovesoldhorrormovies I'll double check the recipe, but I do use salt. I believe it's 1/2 tsp. sorry about that. Vital gluten is different from glucomannan. Xanthan gum is an appropriate substitute. Both provide a better texture to the finished baked good, but can be omitted.

[@carolinelovesoldhorrormovi8641]

Thank you so much for your speedy reply. Can't wait to try your muffins and many other dessert recipes (also non dessert recipes). Love your inspirational story as well. Thanks again.

[@trenamaxson1641]

What whey protein isolate do you recommend? There are so many on the market.

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

Isopure or Jay Robb. Remember you want isolate which has the casein and lactose removed.

[@patriciabeetschen1329]

Is there a link to a printable recipe? I bought your book and was a little disappointed that I here were very few (6) desserts.

[@ellenshorty]

She has another book coming out in less than three weeks! (December 4th) and it is called Keto Gatherings, which has more recipes for desserts. Mine is pre-ordered and I can't wait to get it! I told my husband this is the only thing I want for my birthday this year, which is December 5th.

[@elizabethlavet7528]

Is oat fiber and oat bran the same thing?

[@MiaSonoma]

+Elizabeth Lavet No, Oat bran has lots of carbs. You can order oat fiber online at vitacost.com.

[@barbarainnc8165]

What brand of liquid sweetener did you use in the choc. muffins? 😊😊 thanks

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+Barbarainnc I tend to use liquid sucralose by the brand name EZ Sweetz.

[@brianneaustin8982]

Do you have the nutrition for these?

[@Tonya1823]

+Brianne Austin Kristie doesn't do the break down of her recipes but the nutritional count I got on these were..... Calories 180.0 Total Fat 16.5 g Saturated Fat 0.0 g Polyunsaturated Fat 0.0 g Monounsaturated Fat 0.0 g Cholesterol 0.0 mg Sodium 0.0 mg Potassium 0.0 mg Total Carbohydrate 4.9 g Dietary Fiber 2.5 g Sugars 0.0 g Protein 4.8 g You can go here www.caloriecount.com/cc/recipe_analysis.php and put in a recipe and get the break down of it

[@ginajester1413]

Just went to the kitchen and whipped up a batch of these. And I hope I understood the directions right. It calls for one cup of the sweetener and if you use the Sukrin:1, that's almost the entire bag!! At $6.99 per bag!!! :( I think I am just in sugar shock from the fact that the Sukrin:1 bag is so small and I had to use almost the entire thing. So, here's hoping these things are as awesome as everyone has been saying. :)

[@ginajester1413]

+Gina Jester Just took these out of the oven and honestly, I have to say these are just okay for me. I ate one hot, so I'll try it again once they cool down and see if that's better. Everyone has different tastes so probably just not my cup of tea. But they baked up really pretty and have a very good consistency, very muffin like. :) I will let my daughter try one when she gets here. She is more of a chocoholic then I am and would be a better judge. :)

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+Gina Jester Sorry you didn't love them!! They are very rich and chocolate-y, so maybe that's it. You might enjoy the blueberry cream cheese ones.

[@Species710]

You are adorable. Not that that is relevant. I adore your accent. Thank you for this video.

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+Species710 Thanks for your kind words!

[@barbarainnc8165]

Have you used Sucradrops? I saw this online. 😊

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+Barbarainnc Yes. I like those!

[@LoveIsNot4TheFaint]

Can I use anything other than the whey protein powder? I am allergic to some protein powders and if you are using the Isopure I know I am very allergic to it.

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

Is there any whey protein isolate you can use? If so, use that. Egg white protein powders usually work well too!

[@LoveIsNot4TheFaint]

No not really. Most of them (that I have tried) I am allergic to on some level. I have never seen egg white protein powders before I will look for one. I have tried soy and it made me so sick I almost would rather have had the ones I am allergic to.

[@ratmgr2]

These look really good 😍. You mentioned the blueberry muffins, but so far you only have the blooper video yo 😢

[@CookingKetowithKristie]

+ratmgr2 yes, I've got to post it!
